My "back porch" is my kitchen, my favorite room in the house. Come on in, the coffee is fresh, and I just made a pitcher of sweet tea. The cookies will be out in a minute. I have over 40 years of recipes to share with you, along with my opinion on everything. Oh my, you are right, it is cocktail time. What can I get you? Of course I can make you a Mint Julep! Stop by anytime, something is always cooking, and the back door is never locked.

Bon Appetit, Y'all

Yellow Summer Squash Casserole

I am one to cook whatever is in season, and now it's yellow squash. Even people who think that don't like summer squash will love this casserole, even kids. I make this often during the summer because it's great with everything.

  3. This sounds good. Do you know how to make the squash and zuchinni casserole they used to have at Boston Market? It had cheese and breadcrumbs on top. I loved that stuff.
